A Gutenberg Bible, ancient Greek papyri and an Hebrew Scroll are among the artefacts on show in Thirsk and Easingwold as part of the touring Bible exhibition.
The exhibition, which features a substantial collection of Bibles old and new, charts the history of the world's most famous book using videos, models and interactive computers. A couple of the panels trace the unique history of how we are able to read the Bible in modern English.
"People were burned at the stake just so we could have a chance of reading this book," said organiser David Coleman.
"We're trying to give an outline of the Bible message and its central character, Jesus Christ. Also we show prophecy, history in advance, some that has happened and some that has yet to happen.
"People often think that the Bible is just a mouldy old book, but it's historically accurate and very relevant to our lives today," he said.
The exhibition, organised by the Christadelphians, has been to all parts of the UK and Ireland and a replica is in use in the USA and Canada. This however is the first time it has been in Thirsk and Easingwold. It has recently been completely rebuilt, but its message like that of the Bible hasn't changed.
Christadelphians, believe the Bible is the word of God and shows His plan and purpose with creation. This is why we give up our time and put our energy into making it accessible to as many people as possible.
To this end a group of volunteers is gathering for a week of their holidays to promote this remarkable Bible Exhibition. They are coming from all parts of the UK .
They are willingly giving of their time because they wish to pass on their experience of finding the help and hopes that are revealed in the pages of the Bible.
On offer will be a free distance learning course which aims to help you read the Bible and find out its message for yourself.
Also free literature on Bible related topics.
